My Project

The sensory toys would be greatly appreciated for my classroom.

My classroom doesn't have any toys appropriate for my autistic child .

My autistic child would benefit greatly from playing with toys that is appropriate for her. She is nonverbal with the toys will allow her to communicate with her peers and teachers. She is a very special and smart little girl.The toys will be great appreciate and helpful for her and the other children this will give them toys to enjoy playing with their friend.

We appreciate the support in obtaining the equipment for my students.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
